Captured. Will You Testify?
"What?! There are still such thugs!?"
Li Jie was stunned, his eyes widened, and he wondered if he had misheard.
Who is it? Where is it?
Li Jie snapped out of his daze, his expression turning serious.
Li Yunjing said, "Outside Xunxian Town, in the Hundred Immortals Town, Wan Xing, a disciple of the Clear Wind Sect."
His cultivation level is not high; Foundation Establishment Early Stage.
Perhaps there are other Clear Wind Sect disciples.
"What a bunch of the Clear Wind Sect! Just because they have a Golden Core cultivator as their ancestor, they think they can do whatever they want?!"
Li Jie's face was gloomy.
The reason why the Immortal Alliance has offices in various places is because...
This is all for the purpose of maintaining regional stability.
Protecting mortals is also one of the responsibilities of the Immortal Alliance.
Although Tianyuan is a world of cultivation, mortals are also an important part of it.
If we allow people to indiscriminately slaughter mortals, wouldn't the cultivation Immortal Realm descend into chaos? And how would that differentiate us from Devil Cultivator?
"There's no time to lose, Yunjing. I'll send someone to Hundred Immortals Town immediately!"
Li Jie turned and left to call for reinforcements.
Before long, Li Jie gathered five people.
Four Foundation Establishment Perfection, and one Golden Core Late Stage.
Li Yunjing recognized that cultivator in the Golden Core Late Stage.
Sikong Ying.
Upon seeing Li Yunjing, Sikong Ying's eyes lit up.
"Young friend, we meet again."
Li Yunjing also greeted Sikong Ying.
Then, Li Jie briefly explained the situation to the people present.
Upon learning that thugs were about to commit violence, the five who had just arrived all tensed up.
Sikong Ying, in particular, grinned.
"What a fine Clear Wind Sect! They dare to do such a thing!"
After asking for the address and learning that it was Hundred Immortals Town, Sikong Ying left first.
At his speed, he arrived at Hundred Immortals Town in no time.
After Sikong Ying left, Li Jie also led his men away from the Xunxian Town Immortal Alliance.
Because Sikong Ying was present this time, Li Jie didn't call for many Foundation Establishment cultivators.
These people were there to clean up the mess.
Li Yunjing left with Li Jie.
The five of them each unleashed their Law Artifact and left Xunxian Town in the blink of an eye.
It took about 15 minutes.
Li Yunjing and his group arrived outside Hundred Immortals Town.
Among ordinary towns, Hundred Immortals Town is considered wealthy.
The population was large, and among those coming and going were some low-level cultivators.
Shen Chun's family lived in the largest mansion in Hundred Immortals Town.
Shen Chun is Foundation Establishment cultivator. If it weren't for the fact that his mother Hundred Immortals Town in Hundred Immortals Town and has deep feelings for it, he would have chosen to pursue a different path.
Shen Chun had already taken his elderly mother to live in Xunxian Town.
Inside the Shen Household compound, besides Shen Chun's mother,
There are also Shen Chun's cousins and other relatives.
They are not very talented, and even if they cultivate, there is little future for them.
Therefore, he stopped cultivating and settled down to be an ordinary mortal.
Shen Chun's three children and his wife have also temporarily returned to live in the Shen Household.
Myriad Treasures Pavilion never opened.
They couldn't be of any help even if they stayed in Xunxian Town.
When Li Yunjing arrived at the Shen Household,
The chaos within the Shen Household family compound has been quelled.
In the front courtyard of the Shen Household, six cultivators dressed in the Clear Wind Sect attire were kneeling on the ground, their hands and feet bound.
Sikong Ying lay leisurely on a recliner to the side.
The servants of the Shen Household, as well as Shen Chun's cousins, all stood around in shock.
His gaze toward the disciples of the Clear Wind Sect was filled with fear and disgust.
Their gazes toward Sikong Ying were filled with gratitude and relief.
Li Yunjing and the others arrived at the front yard, where Li Jie identified himself.
Then he went to ask Sikong Ying what had happened.
Sikong Ying offered a brief explanation.
It turned out that Sikong Ying had arrived at the Shen Household a step ahead of time.
However, the perpetrator was not found.
After waiting for a while, Wan Xing and the other Clear Wind Sect disciples finally arrived.
As expected, these Clear Wind Sect disciples, without saying a word, were about to kill the mortal.
Fortunately, Sikong Ying intervened in time and saved the Shen Household family.
After hearing this, Li Jie walked up to several Clear Wind Sect disciples.
"How dare you disregard the laws of the Immortal Alliance and attack mortals without authorization!"
Li Jie spoke softly, his gaze icy.
This immediately terrified the five Clear Wind Sect disciples besides Wan Xing, who burst into tears.
"I was wrong, I was wrong, please, deacon, spare me!"
"I was unaware of the situation; I was forced into it. He was the one who encouraged us to come!"
"I'm innocent! It's all his fault! He said he was coming to the Shen Household on business, I had no idea he was here to do this kind of thing!"
"Exactly! If we had known we were here to do this kind of thing, we wouldn't have dared to do it even if we had a million lives!"
"..."
The five disciples shouted for mercy, all claiming their innocence.
It's all Wan Xing's fault.
Li Jie ignored him.
Looking at Wan Xing, who was in the lead, Li Jie said, "You were the one who started this, right? But who instructed you? You'd better tell us."
Wan Xing glanced at Li Jie, then turned his head away.
He acted like a dead pig that wasn't afraid of boiling water.
Li Jie chuckled coldly a few times.
Alright, they've entered the Immortal Alliance Prison.
Ideally, they should also have such backbone.
Li Jie directed the others to take the six Clear Wind Sect disciples away.
However, Li Yunjing pulled Li Jie aside and lowered his voice.
"Deacon Li, can I handle Wan Xing's matter?"
Li Jie glanced at Li Yunjing, puzzled.
However, after thinking it over, Li Jie decided to go with the flow.
In fact, after the incident, Li Jie reflected on it carefully.
He realized something was amiss.
Because of a lack of key information, Li Jie was unable to deduce the full picture of the matter.
However, Li Jie vaguely guessed that...
Li Yunjing must have used the Immortal Alliance to handle a private matter.
Li Jie was not averse to the matter.
On the contrary, he admired Li Yunjing even more.
Therefore, when Li Yunjing said those words...
Li Jie confirmed his guess.
Since that's the case, let's just go with the flow.
Anyway, we still have five other Clear Wind Sect disciples at our disposal.
"No problem." Li Jie nodded in agreement.
He appeased the Shen Household members.
In particular, Li Yunjing went up to talk to Shen Chun's wife and daughter.
Tell them that Shen Chun is currently safe and sound.
After properly appeasing the Shen Household members,
Li Jie left one of his Immortal Alliance disciples to stay there.
To prevent drafts from the Clear Wind Sect.
Then, the rest of the group, along with six Clear Wind Sect disciples, rushed back to Xunxian Town.
Upon returning to Xunxian Town, he imprisoned his six disciples in the Immortal Alliance Prison.
Wan Xing and the other five were imprisoned separately.
The purpose was to leave Wan Xing to Li Yunjing.
Li Yunjing arrived at the cell where Wan Xing was being held.
Wan Xing's hands and feet were currently bound by chains made of Cold Meteoric Iron.
There were also chains that went through the shoulder blades, completely binding them.
Upon noticing the newcomer, Wan Xing weakly looked up once more, then lowered his head again.
"Sect Leader Li, I've long admired your name."
Wan Xing spoke weakly, the injury to his shoulder blade causing him excruciating pain.
Li Yunjing looked at Wan Xing, who was sitting on the ground.
"Are you willing to stand up and testify against the Clear Wind Sect?" Li Yunjing asked.
Wan Xing looked up, his eyes full of confusion.
"Proof? Proof of what?" Wan Xing didn't understand.
Li Yunjing smiled:
Do you remember the incident at the Golden Core cave abode?
The Clear Wind Sect risked the lives of Rogue Cultivator to break the formation protecting the cave abode.
If you are willing to come forward and expose this, I can guarantee your life.
Wan Xing smiled sadly, "I didn't realize that Sect Leader Li had such a compassionate heart."
However, I refused.
Although Clear Wind Sect has changed, it is still the sect that nurtured me. I cannot do such a thing.
Li Yunjing shook his head. "What a pity. Since that's the case, we can only wait for another opportunity to destroy Clear Wind Sect."
Wan Xing stared at Li Yunjing, his eyes wide.
Is there any conflict between Sect Leader Li and the Clear Wind Sect?
Li Yunjing smiled, "A contradiction? That's a huge one..."
Li Yunjing gave a simple explanation.
Tell Wan Xing that Mo Xuan and Shui Yao were nearly killed by the Clear Wind Sect.
And because of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, a new feud arose between the Clear Wind Sect and Li Yunjing.
Upon learning this, Wan Xing wore a bitter smile.
"So that's how it is. Clear Wind Sect has unknowingly provoked a powerful figure they can't afford to offend."
